Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Set neutral wrists — spread fingers wide for a larger base of support.
  2. 2. Breathe into the back of the rib cage to maintain core pressure without flaring ribs.
  3. 3. Avoid compensation patterns; if form breaks, address the limiting factor.

Regression:

Perform the pattern seated or standing before transitioning to the floor-based position.

Progression:

Progress to a single-limb support: three-point bear position then dynamic movement.

Common Problems:

Collapsing into the supporting shoulder — press the floor away actively.
